この気持ち…伝わってるといいんすけどね (12/31)

Who: Hajime Hinata & friends
What: Happy birthday, Hinata-kun!
When: December 31, 9PM~
Where: School roof
Warnings: N/A, TBE

( there's various hidden signs that point towards the elevator, and if anyone catches sight, they'll see an arrow that points up, indicating for them to take it skyward. if they get off too early, there's a sign on the floor that reads, "next stop!", so if they dare, they can go back into the elevator and do as the words command. upon making your way to the rooftop on new year's eve, the setup is immediately apparent.

a number of glittering, sparkling decorations line the area — streamers, balloons, music, and a brightly colored sign the reads: happy birthday hinachan. at the heart of the setup is a bonfire that reaches almost shoulder-height — properly set up to make sure it doesn't spread anywhere further than its containment area, it sets a festive tone.

"borrowed" desks are also covered in an array of treats and appetizers courtesy of nene and amami, as well as enough love setsugetsukka to "make 3 people black out," which is probably enough to share if nobody gets too ambitious. the cake at the center of it all is the real star of the show however, almost as big as a person all on it's own.

to top it all off, even under the dim glow of the stars, nobody is short of a little light when natsume and noah's dazzling light show begins. once the main event has closed, a variety of firecrackers are brought out to celebrate with as things begin to wind down. varieties include the classic sparklers, these little spinny bitches, funky little sparkshowers, some little baby rockets, with the larger varieties spanning a couple feet at most. on the opposite side, there's a little table where a birdhouse is kept, and inside stuffed with all sorts of cotton and wood shavings are two birds huddled together inside, and a few treats that people can feed them if interest. if keigo looks at your character from afar, it's fine, that birdhouse they're living in was made by them, after all.

and at the centre of it all will be one boy with a bag over his head, kidnapped by rokuro arata, who sits him down and lets komaeda undo his blindfold — happy birthday, hinata-kun! )

because THINGS are always HAPPENING that make him CRY

I'm not-!

[He rubs faster, because clearly he's not doing a good enough job of Not Crying if it's immediately apparent.]

Maybe... a little, but-

[He shakes his head, hard. When he talks again, his voice is barely above a whisper.]

It's never been like that for me. This day... has never been good for me.

[Most times, the memories he has of home are foggy and indistinct - which should be weird, really, but it's something he's always chalked up to the amnesia. This, however, is clear as can be - maybe it's from the empty feeling that the thought of this day usually brings.]

...Not until today.

[He blushes a little deeper as Komaeda wipes up his tears, but his voice is still quiet when he speaks.]

...How much of this were you behind?

HELP HE'S IN THE WATER

You're just making fun of me now.

[He should be glaring at him, but somehow he finds himself smiling instead.]

It's... nice though. Being cared about so much, for people to do this much... [More than he's ever received, probably, except for when he was a lot younger. It's more cherished and wanted than he's felt in recent years.] I don't know if I really deserve all of this effort, but... It means a lot.

[There's a gentle warmth carried in his heart, spreading all the way out to his limbs. Content. Happy. Loved.]

And you totally took the blindfold off because you had nothing to do with this at all, right?

[It sounds a little watery, but Hinata laughs.

But there's light dancing in his eyes, and in his smile after.]


...Thank you, Komaeda.

tearblob. is him. he's cryin.

...That's true, I suppose. You can't choose that anymore than you can choose who deserves forgiveness or who you care about.

[Hinata realizes a beat after the second part that he's perhaps looked at Komaeda a little too long. He adverts his gaze, just a bit bashful - and after the words that follow, somehow a little pleased. If he wasn't sure before, he is now. It's okay though, they can both be embarrassed together.]

You just happened to, huh? [He's grinning, much less watery, as he reaches out to catch Komaeda's sleeve. Come back.] We can call it that. In any case... you're welcome.

[Seeing Komaeda embarrassed isn't a better present than this whole party combined, but it's still pretty good.]

he's doing his best

[His mouth drops into a frown. Hinata isn't quite pouting, and should anyone ask he is absolutely not, but it's a near thing.]

Hey... I think I get to be a little sentimental today of all days, when somebody is actually celebrating my birthday for once.

[He deserves it, as a treat!!! Not that all of this hasn't been...

He's never had this many friends to celebrate with, or a cake this big, or a sign declaring not that it's a new year but Hinata's own birthday. His heart is still humming with it.]


Come on, though, I know I lost a lot of time but it's not that much... I should just be seventeen.

[Should be, he has to say, because there's a persistent worry hanging over his shoulders. Hinata knows he lost time, knows Komaeda is a little taller - but he doesn't really know how much he's forgotten, does he?]

don't worry the night is still young

[personal profile] futurebullets 2022-01-09 07:22 am (UTC)(link)
Definitely more than I can ever remember celebrating my birthday before... It's kind of overwhelming, but it feels really nice, too.

[Well, that he remembers anyway... God he hopes that isn't part of what he's forgotten, that would really suck.

A shame that he needs his hand, though... Hinata's kind of enjoying both holding onto Komaeda and the fact he's not trying especially hard to break away, so he'll have to bear with Hinata holding onto him for a little longer. It's his birthday, after all.]


...Thank you. [The emotion catches at his voice a little, smile getting softer.] I don't know if any will ever compare to today... but I hope we can have even more days like this.

[There's a promise in the words - to get out of here, to survive long enough to have many more wonderful birthdays like this. The hope that Komaeda, that everyone, can be there to share it with him again.]
